Technology Taming Prison Riots
Prison guards in West Virginia are the test guinea pigslinks for new equipment that is going to change the face of prison life!

Guards are testing out advanced products that are designed to make prison life less violent. The point of these gadgets is to make correctional facilities safer for both the inmates and the guards. Gadgets being tested today include distraction tools termed flash bangs to stun inmates instead of harming them, riot guards that flash inmate's eyes to disorient them, projectile weapons using air that is pressurized as opposed to gunpowder, and pepper-ball guns instead of real ammunition.

These devices still have the capabilities of causing injury, but will not kill inmates in any possible riot situations.

Just when you thought technology had gone everywhere possible, it ends up in jail!
